托福听力之听语调就能做对听力题?!(在线收听) |
托福听力中语调有哪些含义呢?考生们除了在平时练习中扎实基础知识以外,还应该掌握一些听力技巧。比如说每句读完句语气就代表多重含义,接下来就为大家揭晓这多重含义! 1.选择疑问句的语调主要有两种:
在说话人所说的几个选项中选择时,前面的选择事项用升调,最后一项用降调,中间的连接词如or等用平调。例如:
Is your car ↗blue, ↗green or red?↘
Do you go there by bus↗ or by taxi?↘
如果说话人还有其他选择没说出来,那么几项选择都用升调。例如:
Is your car ↗blue, ↗green or red?↗
Do you go there by bus↗ or by taxi?↗
2.有些一般疑问句的句式读作降调,实际上表示感叹。
如:Hasn't she grown! (↙)这句话实则表示:她成长得多快!
请看下面的试题:
M: Wasn't Sam's speech great! (↙)
W: Are you serious?
Q: What does the man say about Sam's speech?
(A) Sam's speech wasn't great, was it?
(B) Sam's speech was great, wasn't it?
(C) Sam gave a serious speech。
(D) Sam was not serious。
男人所表达的意思是啥?其实是对Sam发言之精彩发表感叹,也就是B选项。
3.有些一般疑问句句式也不需要回答,其功能也相当于陈述句,但肯定结构表否定。
否定结构表肯定,而且传递了说话人浓烈的情绪。如:
W: Haven't you got anything better to do? (↗)
M: Ok, Mum, I'll turn off the TV and begin to do my homework。
显然,妈妈的意思是责备儿子不应该看电视,而应该做比看电视更有益的事——也就是说,妈妈认为儿子有更好的事可做。而对话中,儿子当然也明白妈妈的意思,因此说要关掉电视,开始做功课。 |
